In Michigan City, officials say a new housing development is set to open its doors this spring. A news release said The Moore townhomes’ initial phase is on track to welcome its first residents in May 2026 as eight townhomes are heading toward completion. The Moore Development Group says the project is located on about an eight-and-a-half-acre site formerly owned by a church and represents the largest tract of land zoned for residential use north of the railroad tracks, off U.S. 12, positioned between Michigan City and New Buffalo, and directly adjacent to Long Beach and Duneland Beach. Construction began in November 2025, and the remainder of the project will be completed in phases after the first residents move into the community. “The Moore adds another facet to Michigan City’s housing options with a community that brings together townhomes and single-family offerings,” said Economic Development Corporation Michigan City Executive Director Clarence L. Hulse. “The city is seeing a surge in residential housing development that is trending to reach 2,000 units in the next five years.”
